Hey Tony, I would recommend using ssh port forwarding instead of making your hwi publicly available on the internet. When you connect to the master node using ssh you should use a command like the following:
ssh -i /path/to/keyfile.pem -L 9999:localhost:9999 -l hadoop MASTER_HOSTNAME After you have connected, add the following to your hive/conf/hive-site.xml file: <property> <name>hive.hwi.war.file</name> <value>lib/hive-hwi-0.8.1.war</value> <description>This is the WAR file with the jsp content for Hive Web Interface</description> </property> Run this command to start up hwi: hive --service hwi And finally point your browser to: localhost:9999 That worked for me.
